New Delhi: Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Limited (IREDA) has incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary in the International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) located in GIFT City, Gujarat. Named “IREDA Global Green Energy Finance IFSC Limited,” the subsidiary was officially incorporated on May 7, 2024, after receiving a ‘No Objection’ letter from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on February 8, 2024, to setup the finance company in IFSC, GIFT City.
Pradip Kumar Das, Chairman & Managing Director (CMD) of IREDA, said that IREDA’s presence in GIFT City signifies a momentous step in its mission to pioneer innovative approaches to green financing. “This subsidiary not only positions IREDA to extend its global reach but also acts as an offshore platform for securing competitive funding to drive the renewable energy sector’s growth, aligning with the Government of India’s ambitious ‘Panchamrit’ targets,” he said.
He added that IREDA's entry into the IFSC is anticipated to unlock fresh business prospects and establish its global footprint in the renewable energy sector. This strategic step is in line with our vision of facilitating sustainable development through renewable energy investments, both domestically and internationally. With IREDA’s presence in IFSC, we anticipate greater access to innovative financing alternatives and enhanced collaboration with international investors, encouraging the advancement of renewable energy projects in the country and abroad.
